First Look at the Interstellar Medium in the "Redshift Desert"
|
Combined GMOS spectrum of 13 galaxies of the "redshift desert". |
|
Using the Gemini North
telescope, a group of astronomers (*) has observed the heavy element enrichment
in the interstellar medium of very distant galaxies. The region of the Universe
probed is known as the "redshift desert" because in the past only very few
galaxies have been discovered in this space-time window.
